Syllabus

Disorderly conduct as set forth in R.C. 2917.11(A)(1) is a lesser-included offense of domestic violence as set forth in R.C. 2919.25(A). However, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in failing to instruct because on the facts of the case. Construing the facts in favor of the defendant, the jury could not have reasonably concluded that the defendant did not commit domestic violence. Judgment affirmed.
